I Can't Open Doors

As you can probably imagine, it's difficult living in a world of closed doors. Hello, my name is Simmy Khetpal, and I have trouble opening doors. Many individuals like to call me a young Einstein and applaud me on my academic achievements in general, but oftentimes, geniuses have their own issues that they struggle to overcome. I mean, the thing is, I'm really great at everything. I just can't open doors, and a lot of people don't believe me when I tell them I need them to open doors for me because I just can't do it. I've gotten told that I'm just lazy, but, in reality when I see a door handle, I think of it as a complex math problem. In fact, I see a lever, and I see that it connects to a larger piece of wood, but I just don't know how it all works.

When someone closes the door, how does that even happen? Is there someone standing on the other side of the door, holding it there? You know what, everyone has their own unique set of problems. Some people aren't great at drawing, cooking, or writing, but my problem is I just can't open doors. However, today is going to be different. I think I'm just going to try harder, and I believe that should work.

Okay, so in all my seventeen years of life, I've never been able to open a door handle without some sort of assistance, but I was kneeling down about thirty minutes ago against the front door of my house, and I finally figured it out. I wrapped my hands around the handle and applied just the right amount of pressure, and before I knew it, the door just swung right open. I couldn't believe it! This is why it is so important to persevere and to never give up on your goals.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
